I found yet another reason that reinforces buying PPK with a “cost averaging strategy” on the way up….WAY UP!!!
When I first invested in PPK I was impressed by all the applications of BNNT and the growth markets which PPK was set to disrupt.
Since than I have been amazed with the rollout of Joint Ventures under the unique business model umbrella.
As was released in last week’s Annual Report, in August 2021 PPK purchased a Mask Manufacturing business for $1.5M, and associated land/building for $4.279M.
I have done some follow up research, knowing that PPK have strategically invested $5.779M. I also recalled the filtration properties of BNNT (there are many, many uses for BNNT).
White Graphene (close cousin of BNNT) looks every much the material associated with the reasoning for the Mask Manufacturing purchase, you can make your own determinations.
I spoke to a close friend who works for NSW Health. They informed me that in a single shift they would use between 20 to 25 masks, PRE-COVID!!! Why? Because under PPE mandatory protocol (Infection Control) they must change masks for every new patient. (Also, to their knowledge all the masks used are imported).
Furthermore, I have the following information shared by a University Professor who teaches in the Science/Biology field. Humans evolved about 200,000 years ago and during this time the human body has also evolved and improved. Due to improved nutrition and proteins humans have become smarter, larger and faster. However, the human respiratory system remains antiquated, vulnerable, and weak. For this reason, our Professor contact believes humans will require masks into the future to assist with our poor respiratory system. He believes masks will become the new normal, they will be a part of everyday life, here to stay. Colds and flus will continue to decline with improved hygiene and the wearing of masks.
The following articles are of interest….join the dots….
“Researchers have reviewed different types of nanomaterials and how they can be used for the detection, prevention, and treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).”
“Graphene-based field-effect transistors have been used to analyze COVID-19 viral loads in samples. Studies have shown highly sensitive and fast detection of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) – the causative pathogen of COVID-19 – without any sample pretreatment. Graphene oxide has also been used as an antiviral agent. Graphene and graphene oxide have been used in face masks to inactivate viruses and allow mask reuse.”

“Sandy Chen, co-founder of Graphene Composites, is developing applications for graphene, a form of carbon said to have huge potential for being a highly sustainable material. As well as enhancing the performance of wind turbine blades, the company has devised a formula he believes can help fight the pandemic.”
“A leading role in the fight against Covid-19
Now British firm Graphene Composites claims it has developed a unique, virucidal and germicidal ink that can be used in a broad range of applications including PPE, filtration solutions and high-tech surfaces that capture and destroy viruses and bacteria.”
“Indeed, researchers at Brown University in the US found that within one minute of exposure the GC ink was able to completely stop the human influenza virus and OC43, a coronavirus that causes the common cold, from replicating and spreading. It is currently being tested on SARS Covid-2, the coronavirus that causes Covid-19.”
“Thanks to its high versatility, we foresee that graphene may have a leading role in the fight against Covid-19.”
“The ink could be a big thing for hospitals in particular, and it can be applied in any enclosed space… even cars or public transport as well as on PPE including masks,” said Mr Chen.
“Effectively we could filter the air to make it cleaner and safer.”

“Health Canada previously advised Canadians not to use face masks that contain graphene after a preliminary assessment identified some potential for inhaled graphene particles to cause early lung effects in animals (e.g., early signs of inflammation). As a precaution while a risk assessment was ongoing, Health Canada directed all known importers and distributors of these masks to remove four mask models from one manufacturer, Shandong Shengquan New Materials Co. Ltd., from the market.
Health Canada has reviewed the available scientific literature along with data provided by Shandong Shengquan New Materials Co. Ltd., related to the biomass graphene contained within its four models. The review found that biomass graphene particles are not shed from these masks in quantities that are likely to cause adverse lung effects.”
“Companies wishing to sell graphene masks must first provide evidence to Health Canada demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of their models, as the risks with using graphene masks may vary depending on mask design.”
Graphene masks are now permitted for sale in Canada.

The White Graphene market has many applications and is set to be a major disruptor to a number of markets and can be the nucleus of a complete new diverse sequence of markets (similar to BNNT). From previous PPK announcements we already know White Graphene markets include; storage of hydrogen capabilities, improving paints, strengthening fibreglass resin, crack resistant faux leather, concrete floor coating hardener, wire strength & coatings, various benefits for Acrylic, PU and timber coatings.
PPK have already infiltrated many industries throughout the world, but masks are used by EVERY business in the world.
The immediate and future leverage of infiltration through a product that could help fight Covid-19 should not be underestimated. Australian Government Support, International Recognition, Community Support and OVERFLOWING LOVE FOR PPK would be immense.
Viruses are evolving quicker than our outdated respiratory system.
It seems the total intention of PPK is to solve yet another global challenge. Going by PPK’s track record whatever they have planned it will sure to be innovative, revolutionary, commercially viable and KICK-ASS!!! Because that’s what you get with PPK!!!
PPK are the ONLY COMPANY to produce high purity BNNT in commercial volumes (patented). Beware of copycats. Similarly, there are many who will claim to produce graphene – but we are talking quality ‘White Graphene’. Again, beware of imitators.
PPK are set to IPO White Graphene (as per last week’s Annual Report).
The PPK Mothership is continuing to roll-out well researched, and University authenticated science to commercialisation.
